Jennycliff to Bovisand

We had done this walk back in August, but that day my camera was not working properly so I wanted to re-do it and take photos.  When we did it last year part of the South West Coast Path was closed due to a landslip and we had to walk a small section on the road.  Today the whole path was open.

Although the forecast was for a sunny day there was a sea mist that meant you cold not see Cornwall clearly.  I waited to take my photos on the return journey but the backgrounds were still not very defined.

There were a lot of steps at the beginning of the walk, first down then up but after this the path went gradually up and then down before more steps just before the end.  There were Devon violets along the side of the path to remind us which county we were in.


There were spectacular views of the Sound. into Plymouth and out to the Breakwater.  It was a pity it wasn't a clearer day.


It was low tide so there were large beaches at Bovisand and Sandy Parlour.
